I’ve got a pair of Sony Bluetooth headphones which have an optional cable connection and the cable sounds noticeably better, but they’re not a premium model. If you can live without the convenience of wireless I would choose wired.
If your laptop has Bluetooth then yes you’re good to go.
A really optimal setup at reasonable budget would be something like a raspberry pi streamer into a headphone amp / DAC combo feeding your favourite flavour of wired cans, probably closed-back if you’ve got other people in the room.
Stevethecoffee-
I've just bought these:

convenience of being able to connect to laptop and phone wireless is quite appealing.

thinking about getting some proper headphones.
my family are monopolising the snug and doing awful things like watching netflix on their laptops.
i'm thinking that with a good pair of headphones, i can enjoy the warmth and family vibe whilst floating away in my own world of audio nirvana.
well, it's a good theory anyway.
where to start?
wireless would be good but what's the best way of sharing my music library, internet radio etc via bluetooth?
and what's the range? would be good to be able to move into the kitchen without losing connection.
or should I stick to wired?
